Countdown

well the official countdown has begun here at our house...in 5 days we head out to see disney! this is quite an adventure for our little family. as soon as mapboy finishes school on friday we head out. my parents kindly offered to take our family on the trip. we will be riding in their motorhome and living in it with them - all 6 of us - for 10 days! the kids are thrilled and talk about it non-stop. princess is all about meeting each and every disney princess there is. her next priority is taking care of zurg on the buzz lightyear ride. i haven't figured her out yet! mapboy is all about getting there. his plans include giving directions to grandpa from the passenger seat, defeating zurg, and riding the mountain ride! my plans include a night out with hubby, reliving my childhood through my kiddos, and getting away from the insane world we live in to enjoy the insane world of a million others!!

if any of you out there have wonderful words of wisdom for life at disney with 2 little kids pass it on!

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
